You may be so focused on improving the appearance of your teeth that you aren’t even considering the oral health benefits. But it’s not an either/or situation because cosmetic dentistry and a healthy smile go hand in hand. Many cosmetic dental changes improve your oral health, and improving your oral health usually also enhances the appearance of your smile.

  • Straightening your teeth improves your appearance but also makes them easier to keep clean and healthy.
  • Tooth-colored dental fillings look beautifully natural while improving the integrity and health of the tooth.
  • We may recommend a dental crown to correct the appearance of an oddly shaped tooth, but crowns also strengthen and protect the tooth and can even improve your dental bite in some cases.

So, don’t look at cosmetic dentistry in Woodland Hills as a luxury; look at it as another way to invest in your beautiful smile and long-term oral health.

Whether you have a chipped tooth or need a full smile makeover, we’ll help you achieve your goals for a healthy, beautiful smile.

It can be exciting to think about your smile makeover, and we know you’re eager to get started. But you wouldn’t put fresh paint on crumbling walls, and we don’t perform cosmetic dentistry on unhealthy teeth.

The reason is that we want you to get the most out of your investment in cosmetic dentistry. Making sure you start with clean, healthy teeth allows us to deliver the highest quality, longest-lasting results.

If you haven’t had a dental exam and cleaning in a while, we’ll start there. Our dentists will fill any cavities, and if you have gum disease, we’ll get that under control.

Professional Teeth Whitening for a Radiant Smile

Do you have yellow teeth or tooth staining from red wine or coffee? Because our teeth naturally darken as we age, your smile can make you look older than you really are. If you are looking for an easy way to get rid of stains and brighten your smile, professional teeth whitening is the solution you are looking for.

Professional teeth whitening is more effective than over-the-counter methods, with fewer side effects and more dramatic results. 

Custom Take-Home Teeth Whitening in Woodland Hills

We provide custom teeth whitening trays, professional-strength whitening gel, and detailed instructions for use. You can take your trays home and whiten your teeth at your convenience. Many patients see as much as eight shades of improvement based on the level of staining when we started treatment.

Since the results of teeth whitening are not permanent, you can use your custom trays for future touch-up whitening at home!

Custom Porcelain Veneers in Manhattan Beach

For patients wishing to change the appearance of their smiles dramatically, porcelain veneers can address several aesthetic concerns all at once. From discoloration to wear and even misalignment, dental veneers give you an entirely new look in a much shorter time than other cosmetic treatments.

Porcelain veneers are thin shells that cover the front of your natural teeth. We can create a single veneer to address a problem tooth or multiple veneers to provide you with a whole new look.

We worked with Dmitriy’s Dental Studios and developed our own porcelain veneers for the most dramatic and natural-looking results. Some key features were essential to us when designing our signature veneers:

  • Indestructible
  • Long-lasting
  • Durable
  • Color-stable

The most noticeable characteristic of our Supermodel Veneers is that they look completely natural, even at the gum line. If you have ever seen crowns or veneers that were too bulky, you know that they can take away from your overall appearance.

Crowded, crooked, or misaligned teeth can make you want to hide your smile. They also make it difficult to clean your teeth adequately, which puts you at risk for cavities and gum disease.

Getting straighter teeth doesn’t necessarily mean spending years in braces. In fact, for many people, Invisalign clear braces are the perfect solution to correct crooked or crowded teeth.

With Invisalign, clear plastic aligners move your teeth into their ideal position. We can usually help you achieve the desired results in as little as a year.

Invisalign works fast and also has other benefits over traditional bracket-and-wire braces:

  • The crystal-clear aligners won’t mar your smile
  • Smooth, comfortable plastic won’t irritate your mouth
  • The aligners are removable for meals and oral hygiene
  • Treatment times are shorter, as little as 12 months in some cases.

Straightening your teeth has benefits beyond cosmetics because they’re easier to keep clean. With straighter teeth, you can dramatically reduce your cavities and gum disease risk.
